Re: (fventura03)

does it have to be welded, or can you just shove some short hair fiberglass in there? or will that make it look like crap, sorry for stupid questions i just have absolutely no idea

Don't do it, it will be ugly. If you really don't like them, get thin moldings and have them color matched to the car, but don't try to ditch them.
